I didn't think "Little Chicago" was the Park Hill I thought Little Chicago was the Hyde Park and Sky Edge area where the Sheffield gangs were based in the 1920's/30's Can't expect a TV researcher to know much about Sheffield though, as this programme showed, they know a lot more about Liverpool. A good programme though, I enjoyed it, and the old video scenes of Park Hill in the 60's were great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
